Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Commercial Organic Analysis, Vol. 2: A Treatise on the Properties, Modes of Assaying, and Proximate Analytical Examination of the Various Organic Chemicals and Products Employed in the Arts, Manufactures, Medicine, &C.; Part III., Acid Derivatives of Phenols, Aromatic Acids, Acids, Resins
With the issue of the present Volume, this treatise is again available in a completed form. The Chapter on aromatic acids, which has been much enlarged and finds first place in this volume, originally preceded the section on tannins in the second edition of Volume III, Part I. In consequence of the enormous amount of successful research carried out in recent years on the chemistry of the resins and the essential oils, the subject-matter of these chapters is almost entirely new, and occupies a space respectively five and ten times that of the same sections in the previous edition.
